Abstract
The moduli of porous materials have been extensively studied analytically as well as experimentally. Several empirical and analytical equations were proposed to express the effective moduli of porous solids. In the present investigation, a few of these relations were checked for experimental validity in the case of closed-cell aluminum foams. Also, this study brings out the relative merits of these expressions.
